Upon reaching the carriage, someone immediately carried Xiao Nian up and helped her sit down.
Wan Qiqi also got into the carriage and sat down opposite Xiao Nian, quietly watching Xiao Nian to see what she wanted to do.
"Wan Qiqi, as a woman, it is impolite of you to show your face in public like this." Xiao Nian picked up a bulging money bag from the side and placed it on the small table in front of Wan Qiqi. "You opened the restaurant and attended the Xiao family's birthday banquet, wasn't it all for money? Take this money and leave the Xiao family's birthday banquet!"
This was Xiao Nianlai's goal, and also the only way to get Wan Qiqi to back out.
She had no intention of threatening Wan Qiqi, nor did she want to embarrass the Xiao family.
From a young age, she was instilled with the idea that money can buy anything, and that was the best solution she could think of for this matter.

"Second Miss, I don't know what influences you to think that women should stay at home, but I think it's not wrong for women to show their faces in public. We have the right to pursue the life we want."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Nian was taken aback.
She had never heard such a thing before: weren't women all dependent on men for survival?
Everything is for the family, for future generations. Who would be selfish and only care about themselves?
"Second Miss, I will not back down. I'm not just doing this for myself, but also for the restaurant." Wan Qiqi smiled gently.
Xiao Nian's face darkened, and he said coldly, "Aren't you afraid I'll tell my brother and have him kick you out?"
